Spirit Platform Blazing Star Stone
The Spirit Tablet Master said, "The path of cultivating mental power relies heavily on talent and family background."
"The distribution of martial arts talent and physique decreases evenly from low to high. Young Son of Heaven are extremely rare in each generation; there are some who inherit their talents, but even more are those Perfected Person, followed by those at the Eight Springs, Seven Springs, and so on..."
"Psychic power is different! At the level of Great Mind Master, there are only top geniuses and mediocre individuals; those in between are very, very few."
"That's exactly why there are far fewer practitioners of mental power than practitioners of martial arts."
"As Li Ling said, there are very few Mind Master under the age of sixty in the Jiu Li Tribe. In fact, they can only be considered to be among the middle group of people with average talent. They are neither outstanding nor lacking. They have the hope of breaking through to become Saint Mind Master in their second sixty years of life, but the hope is extremely slim. Out of ten, probably only one can succeed."
"The most elite mental cultivators! Like Li Ling's father, I reckon he became Saint Mind Master before he turned sixty. Such a person is a once-in-a-century phenomenon even among the Myriad Ancient Clan."
Li Weiyi said, "Could it be just because of his family's wealth? Without the financial support of the entire Cangli Tribe, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Old Li to cultivate into Saint Mind Master before the age of sixty and live to be three hundred."
The cultivation of mental power is different from martial arts. Once you become Saint Mind Master, you will no longer be a mortal whose lifespan is limited to two cycles of sixty years. You can live for at least three hundred years.
Like a god!
Those Longevity Realm Expert through martial arts must break free from the Longevity Lock.
Li Ling rolled her eyes at Li Weiyi.
Although she only learned six months ago that Li Songgu was actually Saint Mind Master.
The Spirit Tablet Master said, "Wealth is also part of a cultivator's talent! That's why martial arts practitioners from higher family backgrounds automatically gain an extra layer of talent. Aren't you also relying on wealth to achieve what you have today in just over a year?"
Li Weiyi had no choice but to agree, and said with a smile, "As for financial resources, I rely on my own hard work."
The Spirit Tablet Master said, "Before the age of thirty, Great Mind Master who has reached the Calamity Fire Realm... You should know from participating in the Qianlong Lantern Festival that it's quite easy to gather one or two hundred people from all Twenty-Eight Prefectures of Lingxiao."
"These people are already considered quite talented! But even if they cultivate for another ten years, only a handful of them will become Mind Master."
"Li Ling, you tell him why."
Seventeen-year-old Li Ling, graceful and 1.7 meters tall, with a fuller figure, still barefoot, revealing her long, straight, jade-like legs. "Because one must undergo the Calamity Fire Nine Refinements to qualify as Mind Master."
"To break through to the Great Mind Master, one must cultivate the spiritual light in the Spirit Realm to perfection before reaching the Calamity Fire Realm. The Calamity Fire Nine Refinements, in essence, is equivalent to nine times this process."
"The Master Wu said that my mental power and talent in talismanic arts are already outstanding among my peers. However, it took me more than half a year to complete the first refinement."
"Before I turn twenty-five, I have a chance to complete the Calamity Fire Nine Refinements. Before I turn thirty, I have a chance to become Mind Master."
The Spirit Tablet Master said, "Only those who become Mind Master before the age of thirty can be considered geniuses in the path of spiritual power, and those who have the opportunity to become Saint Mind Master before the age of sixty."
Li Weiyi calculated, "It took me 100,000 Spring Coin and almost half a year to reach the peak of my Spirit Realm cultivation. In other words, if I want to break through to the Mind Master, I will have to wait at least three to five years, and it will cost me a million Spring Coin."
Li Ling knew how monstrous Li Weiyi's mental power cultivation was; she felt inferior to him and had a sense of defeat that no matter how hard she tried, she would be easily caught up.
She said, "You've spent most of the past six months cultivating martial arts, so naturally, cultivating your mental power has been extremely expensive."
Li Weiyi thought of the Spatial Power of the Buddha's Sarira: "If I use Spatial Power to assist in cultivation, will it be faster?"
The Spirit Tablet Master said, "I don't think it will be much faster than consuming the Light Flame Pill and meditating under the Fusang Divine Tree. Unless you take the Buddha's Sarira directly to the Tanggu Sea, but then you might not be able to return to the Lingxiao Shengjing! That sea is said to be millions of miles wide, a place where the three realms meet, and it is extremely dangerous."
"Before you achieve transcendence, I don't recommend that you take a one-way trip with no way back."
"The treasure I'm referring to, which can assist in breaking through to the Mind Master realm, is called the Spirit Platform Blazing Star Stone."
"This object is a sacred relic of the ancient Bhakara Sect, which has been lost to the annals of history."
"More than a thousand years ago, I obtained some Spiritual Platform Blazing Star Stone Fragment in a secret realm. According to the records on the murals in the secret realm, a complete Spirit Platform Blazing Star Stone is as large as a mountain and is the foundation for the Bhakara Sect to dominate this land for ten thousand years."
"At its peak, the Bhakara Sect was several times larger than the Lingxiao Shengjing, which was in its Three Hundred Prefectures a thousand years ago, and its territory reached many areas of the present-day Netherworld of the Departed."
"But as the Spirit Platform Blazing Star Stone were continuously consumed and became increasingly scarce, the higher-ups of the Bhakara Sect began to control and even prohibit the use of Star Stones. Soon after, due to unequal distribution and suspicion between superiors and subordinates, a civil war broke out."
"In that battle, the last remaining Spirit Platform Blazing Star Stone was shattered!"
"Tens of thousands of years later, the fragments of the Spirit Platform Blazing Star Stone were almost completely consumed, becoming nothing more than a legend."
Li Ling said, "No wonder I've never heard of this before."
The Spirit Tablet Master said, "Back then, I brought back dozens of Spiritual Platform Blazing Star Stone Fragment from the Zuoqiu Courtyard. It's possible that the Zuoqiu Courtyard still has some, though the possibility is slim. But you can ask the Zuoqiu Ling, or that old fellow from the Confucian and Daoist lineage; one piece is enough!"
Li Weiyi said, "But it also needs to be tempered in the Calamity Fire Nine Refinements, right?"
"With your talent for telekinesis, plus the Fusang Divine Tree and your financial resources, if you temporarily set aside martial arts and devote yourself fully to it, you should be able to complete the Calamity Fire Nine Refinements in two years."
The Spirit Tablet Master laughed, "To break through to become Mind Master in just two or three years—such talent in mental power will surely shock those in the Lingxiao Shengjing once again. Martial arts may be ruined, but mental power will rise; you'll still be Above All Others."
"Then I will teach you Daoist formations and Daoist spells. Combined with insect control, you will be virtually invincible among your peers."
Clearly, the Spirit Tablet Master wanted Li Weiyi to focus her main energy on cultivating mental power and inherit his mantle, hence his seductive tone.
The Calamity Fire Nine Refinements will take two years, and the Spirit Platform Blazing Star Stone is elusive and elusive.
This road is difficult to travel!
Zen Sea Observing Mist, holding a Xihe Flower in his hand, suddenly said, "I can refine High-grade Dharma Pill, the Star Day Pill. Taking one pill will complete the first refinement of the Calamity Fire. Taking nine pills will complete the Calamity Fire Nine Refinements."
Only those who reach the level of Mind Master can refine magical pills and magical artifacts.
Therefore, every Mind Master is extremely valuable to powerful forces, like a money tree.
The grades of magical pills are divided into: low-grade magical pills, medium-grade magical pills, High-grade Dharma Pill, and top-grade magical pills.
The Light Flame Pill is a low-grade magic pill, worth about one thousand Spring Coin.
The Five Seas Pill is a mid-grade magic pill, worth around ten thousand Spring Coin, and it is extremely rare and difficult to obtain. The pill formula and refining materials are monopolized by powerful forces with Myriad Gate Families, who control the advancement path to the Five Seas Realm.
The "Star Day Pill" that Zen Sea Observing Mist just mentioned is High-grade Dharma Pill, so its price is naturally much higher. Normally, it can only be refined by Saint Mind Master.
As for the "Longevity Pill" possessed by the Du'e Temple, it is a priceless treasure, a spiritual elixir surpassing even the Dharma Pill.
Li Weiyi's face lit up with ecstasy.
"Xihe Flower and Extreme Day Light Dew can be the main ingredients, and fourteen other auxiliary ingredients are needed. The Spring Coin you have here... are barely enough!" said Zen Sea Observing Mist.
Li Weiyi's smile vanished. The Spring Coin stored in the Blood Mud Space still needed to be used to purchase Dao Lotuses and Dao Fruit for martial arts cultivation. Moreover, he might need to buy Spring Fluid as well.
The Spirit Tablet Master said, "Using High-grade Dharma Pill to cultivate the Calamity Fire is a serious waste and a bit too extravagant, isn't it? Star Day Pill are more than enough for Mind Master's cultivation."
Zen Sea Observing Mist said, "Then let's forget about it!"
Never mind?
Li Weiyi quickly said, "Give me a list, I'll go buy it. Anyway, the Jiu Li Hidden Gate can subsidize half of it."
"I'll go buy the fourteen kinds of auxiliary medicines. I'll also take this opportunity to get some fresh air."
Zen Sea Observing Mist's cultivation had increased significantly, and his confidence had also grown considerably. He instructed Li Ling to put the Spring Coin into a boundary bag, and then said, "Go to the Jiu Li Hidden Gate and get some Extreme Day Light Dew. You don't need too much, just refine eighteen coins; eighteen drops will be enough!"
"Is eighteen drops enough? The Spirit Tablet Master said that the Star Day Pill is a pill taken by Mind Master, so let's refine more! If we don't have enough money, we can sell dragon bones."
Li Weiyi has four dragon bones; two were given to him by Hidden Lord, and two were given to him by Zuoqiu Hongting.
Dragon bones are treasures for body refinement. Refining a piece into one's body can make one's physical combat strength comparable to the weakest First Heaven Dao Seed Realm martial artist. At the same time, it can reshape one's innate bones.
Li Weiyi felt that breaking through to the Dao Seed realm in martial arts as soon as possible was far more important than refining the dragon bones to cultivate his physical body.
Other martial arts practitioners coveted the dragon bone, but Li Weiyi disagreed, believing that the dragon bone might not be superior to his own innate constitution.
Hidden Eleven, Hidden Twenty-Four, and others returned to Lizhou with Hidden Lord half a year ago.
Now that the war in Lizhou has ended, the young hermit naturally wants to return to Jiu Li Insect Valley to cultivate.
Old Qin has not shown himself since he fled Qiuzhou City half a year ago, fearing that his presence would be detected by the old men of the Zuoqiu Courtyard and cause unnecessary trouble.
The Old Zhuo is still in Qiuzhou, but he is rarely seen. He only told Li Weiyi that he would appear when Li Weiyi needs him most.
Li Weiyi didn't believe he would protect her closely at all times, and felt very uncertain.
No way.
How could Li Weiyi possibly care about these Ancient Hidden Person who had lived for countless years?
I can only rely on this life-saving charm by my side.
The sun had set, and night had just fallen.
Li Weiyi ascended to the Fourth Heaven of Peach Plum Mountain and went to the council hall to request an audience with Zuoqiu Courtyard Zuoqiu Cangwu family.
Since the Longevity Forbidden Martial Order was issued, Zuoqiu Ling, who had reached the Longevity Realm, stepped down from his position as head of the family.
Although Dao Seed Realm Martial Cultivator can stabilize their blood and qi, delay aging, and strengthen their foundation, they are still still within the realm of mortals, and their lifespan can only reach a maximum of two Jiazi (60 years), which is 120 years old.
This is the limit of human lifespan!
In the previous sixty years, my body was at its absolute peak, and I worked desperately to gather resources and persevere through trials and tribulations.
In the second cycle of sixty years, all Dao Seed Realm experts who have reached the Seventh Heaven or above and have a chance to break through to the Longevity Realm will abandon their worldly affairs and devote themselves to cultivation. They will either go into seclusion or travel to the Netherworld of the Departed and various secret realms to seek fortuitous encounters.
This is why the most renowned Dao Seed Realm Martial Cultivator in the world are all figures listed in the "Cycle Record," under sixty years old, and are the power holders in the mundane affairs of various major forces.
Zuoqiu Cangwu is the number one Dao Seed Realm expert within the Zuoqiu Courtyard.
